Shoot them.
It isn't exactly hard to be anonymous on twitter if you wanted or really any other place you could put it on the internet.
You can police the internet to a very small extent and most people recognise stuff shouldn't be taken so literally, I mean shouldn't a large number of 4chan/reddit/everything else users be arrested and they are wasting their time on some retard wishing him death, I mean really?

I would happily see many a Russian shot to be fair.
That was the psychology when I was growing up - in the 70's /early 80's but then no one did anything (or saw anything wrong) about racism either at that time......
Ok maybe an extreme comparison but still
Twitter is a lot more anonymous (or can be to those that want it to be) than majority of online communities though. Of course you can ban the registering email address....and they then create a new address and start again....
Watched the MOTD highlights of the game again last night and anyone else think Lindegaard should have saved Gerrard's shot or am I being overly harsh? Also WTF is it with Gerrard scoring against us, he's not even that good anymore but he's still scoring against us, lolz that in almost all the games he does score in he's on the losing side but still

We let him score, for the occasion and all that
Simply spewing out insults over the internet is hardly the same ssh racism, complete waste of time to try and cut it out.
Cyber bullying on the other hand should be dealt with.
You can guarantee it never changes unless peoples real names are implemented and visible on everything they do on the internet, which will never happen
Also Gerrard was pretty good the entire match vs you lot, and funnily enough when put in an advance position he scores, great goal too
I was just trying to show how things change - I was regularly caned on the hand when I was at my first school (aged 6/7) for trying to write left -handed, if they tried that today at the very least the teacher and probably head teacher would be out of jobs within weeks.
Isnt this case a form of cyber- bullying? I would also consider it to be more than just "insulting" language, coppers are certainly allowed to pull you up for using "offensive" language (admittedly its probably just a warning /night in jail)

Evans is a Man United player, Shelvey is ex cafc.... Basically that's what decides yellows, reds and who is an "injured party"
Shelvey will learn from this, mostly when one of those next happens to roll around like he's been shot in the knee to get it to go down as a 50/50...

I think BaZ mentioned it in another thread but the second episode of the Liverpool documentary showed a clip of Rodgers speaking to Shelvey and telling him not to go to ground because that's not his game. Obviously saw it coming and hopefully Shelvey will learn to listen to the advice he's given in the future.

I see your point re: Shelvey/Evans but the RvP tackle was just a good one, there was nothing wrong with it.
I disagree. Shelvey won the ball before getting his man. RvP did the same. RvP was clear off the floor when he made contact.
I would prefer RvP's challenge to be cleared as OK, but it is inconsistent with other decisions.
You get away with them in local leagues, but it is not in the laws of the game.
Lol sorry but you couldn't be more wrong
Except for the fact that he's right you mean?

Shelvey's foot makes contact with the ball a fraction of a second before Evans' feet both make contact with Shelvey.
Watching it again and again I can't work out how he got sent, especially in light of the fact that Evans got nothing despite throwing himself in two-footed and lunging for the ball studs-up.
The only difference is Shelvey got up whilst Evans screamed and rolled around for a while.

Jesus, Shelvey wasn't the first player to make contact with the ball for one thing, Evans is, secondly Shelvey is off the ground, has all his momentum moving forward and catches Evans ON HIS STANDING LEG, on the front of that leg with that leg having no where to go to cushion the blow. Catch someone with their leg in the air, its rare it will break, it will usually spin a player around though it is possible. Kick a standing leg in the back of the leg, it will usually bend, it has somewhere to give way. Catch someone in a standing leg with studs in the ground from the front. Leg can't bend, leg can't spin away.. its the single most dangerous contact that happens from most tackles.
RVP was clear as day ON THE FLOOR, his left leg, hip, back/side/arm are all ON THE FLOOR, miles before he GETS THE BALL, and he doesn't catch the other player in a dangerous way at all.
What decides who was the injured party in the Shelvey vs Evans case, it would be the studs into the standing leg that could easily have broken Evans leg and clearly hurt, while Shelvey got up uninjured... I would say that pretty much chose who the injured party was.
